No Age, New York (1993)

No Age, New York is a documentary about NYC underground filmmakers (Alyce Wittenstein, Beth B., Chris Krauss, Nick Zedd and Richard Kern, with additional commentary from Henry Rollins and Lydia Lunch) and their work circa 1978-1992.
It features interviews and film clips and Mike appears in a non-speaking role, undressing and displaying his tattoos.

Co-director Nick Abrahams said in an interview:
"We met Michael Wilson, the tattooed man, at a party with Beth B, and he said he'd like to be in our little film (a lovely, shy man, he died in 1996, at the age of 44)."

Mike Wilson took part in this show.
Does anyone have any photographs from the show, were any of you there, do you know what sort of work/s he submitted to the exhibition ?
